Re: The Forgotten Soldier

Merci mon ami ! Your pronunciation of Sajer makes sense, with the "r" sounded - I should've remembered one of the rules I learned in my high school French lessons: "careful - c, r, f, and l are pronounced when they are the last letter of a word following a vowel," or something to that effect. And, I would not have guessed the pronunciation of Guy. Of course, being from Alsace with a French father and German mother, he may have pronounced it with a German influence as well, or perhaps a blend - maybe someone who visits this board from Alsace can shed some more light on the subject.
